im abou to lay out 100 dollar bills for a car.
i really love the outlander and ive found a loaded one for a fair price.

ive been looking for days for reviews of people who have high miles.
the one im looking at has 95000
so before i buy, id like to know if the are good for the long haul like other imports like honda and toyota.
i know it should, but anyone wih high miles on theres?
and any engine/trans problems during that time?

thanks!

 

No Issues after 129k km's with 2007 outlander LS.
No Issues with 2003 Eclipse Gt 102K km's. (TRADED IN).
No issues with 2003 Lancer O.Z. 94k km's (TRADED IN)
No issues 2010 Lancer Ralliart 30k km's.
But that's just us I'm sure other people have different stories as well it is important to know that all maintenance was done as well as what type of driver.

 

thanks!!


this forum just that dead??

 

yes it is.

 

Consumer Reports rates 2007-2008 Outlanders above average on reliability. However for any make vehicle with 95,000 miles proper maintenance is key for reliability. Is there any way you can see the maintenance records for this vehicle.

 

I just passed 98.5k miles.
I've had was a bad rear wheel speed sensor that failed at 45k miles.
I've got a very small oil leak starting on my upper oil pan seal...no biggie.
Last summer I noticed I'm low on regridgerant...probably need to do somethign about thiat this summer...maybe.
Last year my blower fan bearing went dry and started squalling. I ended up taking it apart and re-lubing it...works well so far.
My inner wheel well liners like to crack, allowing the liner to be pushed into the wheel at high speeds. This only burns a hole in th liner. Replacement is cheap. They've beefed up the driver's side with an extra piece of plastic.

 

2007 bought new 5/2007

Just hit 80k miles have had ZERO problems.
-Still on original brakes (plan to upgrade soon)
-Halfway through 2nd set of tires (rotate every 8-10k)
-Planning on doing tranny flush soon
-Have had to add coolant once
-I do oil changes every 5k miles

Nothing else to note. Everytime I take it to dealer/service they say everthing is perfect.

 

2007 XLS bought 07-25-07

About 25450 miles.

- The "biggest problem" was a failure of the speed sensor left front wheel, which was promptly replaced but I paid from my pocket replacement
- Rupture front left splash shield. I replaced the two front myself because I was out Out of warranty. This is a fault factory but Mitsubishi Mexico did not document like as TSB
- Correct a problem in the mechanism of the rear windows under warranty
- Replacing switch on the brake pedal, it seems to me that activates the brake lights (under warranty)
- Replacement 4 tires

and that's it. I'm still very happy with my Outie

 

I have a 2009 that has over 214,000 miles on it with no issues. It doesn’t burn a bit of oil.
